The result is a neat shadow gap, edge protection, and hardware that keeps the piece flush to the wall. Everything required to hang and secure a panel—screws, eye hooks, coated wire, bumpers, nail and hook—is supplied in the included hardware pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this frame protect my panel artwork?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Thin profile places the artwork face just behind the front of the frame so the painting surface is less likely to get bumped or scuffed. The rabbet base has been widened to match Ampersand cradles for a secure fit, and countersunk screw holes prevent hardware from protruding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtended front profile keeps the artwork recessed and shielded from contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWider rabbet base aligns with wooden panel cradles for stable seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCountersunk back holes stop screws from scratching walls or pushing the piece off plane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this frame work with a panel that has no cradle?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the 7\/8\" depth Thin Floaterframe includes riser blocks in the hardware pack to raise flat panels so they sit properly within the rabbet.

For 7\/8\" depth Thin frames, the outer profile is shallower compared with the 1 1\/2\" Thin option, tailoring the look to slimmer panels or canvases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThin: narrow facing, refined shadow gap, shallow outer profile for 7\/8\" depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBold: wider facing for a more graphic presentation and consistent outer dimensions across depths\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBoth styles available in White, Black, Maple, and Walnut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho is this for?
